Unfolding Moments . . . . is a series of print. They were originally painted in water colour by Singaporean artist, Samuel Teo. Through them he sought the hidden mystique of the rose in extreme close-up.

Each painting captures the rose in different stages of unfolding. Samuel uses the unfolding rose as a metaphor for the development of a relationship that it must pass shy and tentative through several different stages before blossoming into its full glory.

Each unfolding of each petal is like a significant moment in a relationship that reveals more and more of each other over time and ushers a deeper understanding. Its unfolding from bud to full-bloom signifies that passage of growth from innocence to maturity. The beautiful formation that gives each rose a distinctive character recognises that we are each uniquely different. Yet there can be a loving harmony like the individual petal that integrates itself into one another.

Also available in card series at S$4.00 each. You may contact Samuel directly through email (firstluv@singnet.com.sg) for purchases.
